[Webpro] importing arrays into flash

[Vinod V. V]

hi rebecca:
I don't know PHP but I have a sample php script which should help
----------------
<?php
$userCode = $HTTP_POST_VARS['myCode'];
$userName = $HTTP_POST_VARS['myName'];
$userDob = $HTTP_POST_VARS['myDob'];
$userAge = $HTTP_POST_VARS['myAge'];
$userGender = $HTTP_POST_VARS['mySex'];
$userScore = $HTTP_POST_VARS['userScore'];
$timeTaken = $HTTP_POST_VARS['timeSpent'];
$f=fopen("newscript.as", "a");
    fwrite($f, 
"$userCode\t$userName\t$userGender\t$userDob\t$userAge\t$userScore\t$timeTaken\r");
    fclose($f);
?>
-------------
